Agenda item 3 (continued)
Credentials of representatives to the fifty-fifth session of the General Assembly
(b) Report of the Credentials Committee
First report of the Credentials Committee (A/55/537 and Corr.1)
The Acting President
The draft resolution recommended by the Credentials Committee in paragraph 13 of its first report (A/55/537) reads as follows:
"The General Assembly,
Having considered the report of the Credentials Committee and the recommendation contained therein,
Approves the report of the Credentials Committee."
We shall now take action on the recommendation of the Credentials Committee as set out in paragraph 13 of its first report.
I call on the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who wishes to speak in explanation of vote or position before the Assembly takes action on the draft resolution.
Mr. Hamzehei (Iran)
My delegation would like to express its reservations regarding those parts of the first report of the Credentials Committee (A/55/537 and Corr.1) that relate to the credentials of Israel. In line with the position of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran on this issue, my delegation wishes to dissociate itself from the parts of the report that refer to the approval of the credentials of Israel.
The Acting President
The Credentials Committee adopted the draft resolution recommended in paragraph 13 of its report without a vote. May I take it that the General Assembly to do the same?
The Acting President
We have thus concluded this stage of our consideration of agenda item 3.
